“I had a very good experience with Dr. Galler. The reason for the appointment was a second opinion about increased eye pressure. Based on my own research, I knew that he would have a solid understanding about preventative procedures which is what I was after. He explained the options thoroughly and took the time to ensure that I understood what the procedures entailed. I greatly appreciated his expertise!”
